With reference to Fig.2.1, an expression for viscous friction drag torque is derived<br />
by considering the entire cylindrical oil film as the “liquid block” acted upon by<br />
force F.<br />
From Newton’s law <strong>of</strong> Viscosity:<br />

Fig. 2.2 Laminar flow <strong>of</strong> fluid in clearance space<br />
Where F = friction torque/shaft radius = 2 T f / d<br />
A= π d l<br />
U = π d n (Where n is in rps d is in m)<br />
h = c (Where c = radial clearance = 0.5(D-d))<br />
r = d /2<br />
